“Everything is good in moderation” – Putin on Legionnaires in Russian football

President of Russia Vladimir Poutine said that the presence of foreign players in Russian teams is necessary, but everything is good in moderation.

On Thursday, Putin held a working meeting with Andrey Klychkov, governor of the Orel region. The head of the region said that a base for mass sports has been created in the region and a transition has been made to the development of a professional, while in the local team “all players will be Oryol, there will be no legionnaires.”

– As well. Legionnaires aren’t bad either, but everything is good in moderation,” Putin told the Kremlin website.

The 13+12 limit was introduced in the Premier League in the 2022/23 season. It assumes the presence in the application of the RPL club of no more than 13 foreign players and at least 12 players with a Russian passport. At the same time, no more than eight foreign players can enter the field at the same time.
